Hi there!.

I'm a newbie to this site and looking for a little bit of support and to make some friends who are either going through the same as me, or who can provide guidance and a friendly word of encouragement

My name is Gemma and I live in Scotland, I'm happily married and mum to two cats, no actual children as of yet.

I've been losing weight roughly for about 5 or 6 years. I have managed to keep 2 stone off, in that time, I have the last possible 2 stone to go!

I love fitness so exercise is not an issue, I am a regular in the gym 5 times a week. I am also a pole dancer/fitness person so I swing round a pole once a week too!.

Hi Gemma, welcome to Social Slimmers

Well done on your loss (and maintain) so far

Do you follow any particular plan?

Good luck on the rest of your journey! x

Hi Sarah!

Thanks very much, getting there as much as I can

I am at the moment following Slimming World, have only just started it a few weeks abck and trying to get to grips with it x

I love SW! It's fantastic There are lots of SW knowledgeable people on here so you're in good company

There are lots of threads available to view, and feel free to ask anything if you get stuck

Do you go to a group or are you doing it online? Or even just by yourself at home?

Hi Gemma, welcome to the forum

Hi Gemma and welcome to Social Slimmers. Well done on your weight loss!

Aww thank you all for being so welcoming.

I do SW in a group, I find it being the easiest way for me to do it as I think I have accountability then as if I did it on my own I wouldn't be as strict haha

I'm of the same opinion - I prefer going to an actual class

Also, I've been there so long now I don't know what I'd do on a Monday night if I didn't go

Hello and welcome!
